Chapter 309

~5 min read 961 words

Harrison, who could only barely survive thanks to the help of friends, was by no means an isolated case; there were not a few people who had gone bankrupt like him.

They were all young men exploited to the point of public outrage; as long as someone made a proposal, these young men, who had already endured to their limits, would surely rise up.

They wouldn't consider the consequences, only acting out of a momentary surge of blood that they couldn't control themselves.

Lumine said nothing, coming to the corner inside the house with Paimon to eavesdrop.

Sure enough, Harrison and his friends were planning to retaliate against the Kanjou Commission officials who usually exploited them.

Those with nothing to lose fear nothing.

The first target was Kujou Kamaji, who was usually the most arrogant and had repeatedly intimidated and bullied them.

Lumine: "..."

Paimon: "..."

Hearing this, the tool duo was speechless; what a coincidence.

Without any intelligence, they had found the right person directly.

"No, we have to go stop them!" Paimon was a bit anxious.

This was completely different from intimidating Wei Erna; Kujou Kamaji was an official, and if an accident happened, it would definitely be a big deal.

Lumine told her not to act rashly; even if they interrupted them now, they would find a more hidden opportunity to continue their revenge.

They could only find a way to sabotage it later, or tell Chairman Kurisu to let him use reason and emotion to stall Harrison.

Taking this opportunity, Lumine would then get the evidence of Kujou Kamaji colluding with Wei Erna, and then everything would become clear.

Whether it was handing the evidence to the upper echelons of the Kanjou Commission or having a frank talk with Kujou Kamaji, both were good methods.

Regrettably, the idea was good, but all things change not according to her will.

The next day, Lumine told Kurisu the specific news of Wei Erna and Harrison's conspiracy and asked him to stall Harrison during this time so she could find evidence of Kujou Kamaji's collusion.

However, after following him for a whole day, turning around every place in Ritou, she had no gains at all.

But that was right; how could such important evidence of collusion be hidden in a place where it could be easily found by someone?

Frowning, Lumine once again thought of her previous idea.

Use force.

However, unlike Harrison, who used pure violence for revenge, she mainly wanted to get the criminal evidence.

Of course, judging from the results of the tracking, Kujou Kamaji had a tough and stubborn personality and was not afraid of threats from people without status.

Therefore, even using force would likely not work, so Lumine came up with another idea.

Use her special status in Mondstadt and Liyue to visit the Kanjou Commission, become an honored guest of the commission's upper echelons, and then find a way to bluff Kujou Kamaji according to the information provided by Wei Erna.

Although there were some loopholes, for a mere greedy and brainless official under the Kanjou Commission, it should likely be no problem.

Thought of, then done.

A few days later, confirming that Kujou Kamaji would be on duty as a guard for the commission for a period of time, Lumine, having made preparations, formally visited the head of the Hiiragi clan of the Kanjou Commission, Hiiragi Shinsuke.

Obviously, the Traveler's fame had already crossed the thunderstorms to Inazuma.

Except for those at the bottom, almost no one in the upper echelons didn't know her.

Let alone Hiiragi Shinsuke, who was already colluding with the Fatui.

With a guilty conscience, he didn't close the door, but instead received Lumine and Paimon with quite grand etiquette.

At the entrance of the Kanjou Commission!

Kujou Kamaji, who was on duty outside, saw Lumine, who was deliberately wandering in front of him, and secretly recorded her appearance in his heart.

A person who could be valued by Lord Hiiragi Shinsuke was definitely not someone he could offend, so to avoid accidentally offending her one day, he acted very respectfully.

Lumine, having achieved her goal, was very happy; this was the first time she had purely used her brain to crush others, and she was exceptionally excited, eager to tell Luo Li the ins and outs of her success.

Hiiragi Shinsuke had originally thought the Traveler came for a travel permit; after all, unless one had a permit, there was no way to leave Ritou.

Already colluding with the Fatui, he thought of using delaying tactics to keep the Traveler here, and even had a draft ready.

As a result, this person came to chat every few days, never mentioning the permit, always praising Inazuma's culture and customs, and a bunch of nonsense directly stunned him.

The two weren't familiar; what was the use of saying all this?

It made Hiiragi Shinsuke almost think his collusion with the Fatui had been exposed; if it weren't for confirming that the Traveler knew nothing about it, he would have prepared a backup plan.

However, what was interesting was that over these days, Lumine was not only 100% identified by Kujou Kamaji as someone not to be opposed.

Even the young lady of the Hiiragi clan, Hiiragi Chisato, became familiar with her, occasionally saying some things between girls.

Seeing everything proceeding as expected, Lumine's confidence in the success of the plan rose exponentially.

However, good plans always encounter pig teammates.

She also encountered such a helpless thing.

Harrison, who had been silent for a long time, finally took action. He and those young men who were also bankrupt attacked Kujou Kamaji, who was off duty.

The key was that they didn't succeed, but were instead wanted. ===== CHAPTER 311 =====
